Zombie Run is a running race on October 30, 2026 in Gatesville, TX.
From the Organizer
The Zombie Run is a Halloween-themed race with a survival twist! Runners will hit the course wearing flag football belts with four “lives” (flags) while zombies stationed along the route try to steal them. The goal is simple: run, dodge, and survive while keeping as many lives as possible!
The event takes place October 30 at 1900 at the North Fort Hood Recreation Center. The top 10 finishers will be awarded, with additional prizes for runners who cross the finish line with lives remaining. Costumes are encouraged, and volunteers are needed to join the zombie horde!
